Notes[]

  • The AGDI timeline mostly contains references from the original QFG2 with a few new dates given.
  • The hero spent a month training for Shapeir at Famous Adventurer's Correspondence School (unofficial).[10]
  • The trip from Shapeir to Sangerhafen had already taken several months and minter was approaching rapidly.
  • We were told that the very caravan we were on would be the last that traveled west for many months. The Dragon Smoke mountain range near Spielburg is notorious for being difficult to traverse and caravans avoid it it completely during the winter months.
  • I do not think there was any part of our journey here I felt more miserable than during the week it took us to reach Spielburg. The icy winds blowing through the pass chilled me to the bone and I had a lot of trouble breathing the thin mountain air.
  • It took several months for Shameen and Sheema to reach Sangerhafen (unofficial) from Shapeir (unofficial). Winter was approaching rapidly at the time.
  • "The ceiling reminds you of a night you spent in the land of Haight-Ashbury many years ago. As a matter of fact, the whole place is like that."
  • Last week’s urnings.
  • King's Quest is partially adapted into this timeline. Although some of the links may involve alternate universe/time travel (obviously Gwydion/Alexander did not die in the Forbidden Cave in the main AGDI KQ timeline, but did in the QFG timeline). The Rosella Dolls and references to Genesta (also seen in the original QFG2) would suggest QFG2 takes place after QFG4.

  1. Some thousand years ago, a Marid called Iblis (see Djinn) attempted to rule the world and turn all men into slaves. He created a huge city in the desert and tried to summon the Djinn to his side. The Sultan Suleiman bin Daoud in turn summoned all the magical Djinn he could bind, and a great war occurred. Iblis was defeated and bound into the form of a statue. Ruins remain near Raseir of what is now called the 'Forbidden City.' Suleiman ben Daoud was the mightiest and wisest of the Magician-Kings of ancient times. For one thousand years and a year, Iblis will be bound..." I know that it has been one thousand and one years to this very day, so that MUST be correct. Iblis was the most powerful of all Djinn. A thousand years and a year ago he created a huge city here and tried to make all men bow before him. Suleiman summoned all the Djinn to his side, and with their power turned the city into Iblis's tomb. Then Iblis himself was caught and bound, and became the statue you saw here. No thank you, Master. I've been sleeping for one thousand and one years already. "One thousand years and a Year, so shall Iblis be caught, In the tombstones of the City, where he and I once fought. Until moonlight has been captured, twixt the Scorpion and Drake, Then comes a Hero from the North, and ancient powers wake." After One Thousand Years and a Year, the door to the ancient city is unsealed. I cannot be wrong. It did not say a thousand and one years and a day. No!
  2. I came to Raseir a little over a year and a half ago now. A man of my stature has no problem making a profit out of any situation. It is not profit that brought me here, though. I came seeking...
  3. For seventeen years, I have sought the black bird.
  4. I came to Raseir a little over a year and a half ago now. A man of my stature has no problem making a profit out of any situation. It is not profit that brought me here, though. I came seeking...
  5. ”This month it is exactly a year ago since the old Emir of Raseir vanished and his successor drove our people away from their home.” (QFG2VGA only)
  6. Raseir was like a twin to Shapeir until a year ago this month. The Emir Arus was overthrown and disappeared. His brother now sits upon the throne. There is a darkness over the city through which I cannot see with all my magic. This was a beautiful place to live a year ago. All of these changes took place because of Ad Avis. The Katta were driven from their home in Raseir last year. It is said that they now have a hero who shall return their home to them. The Emir is the governor of Raseir. During the past year, the Emir of Raseir is rumored to have disappeared, and there have been disquieting tales about the current political situation. The true Emir of Raseir vanished last year at this same time. It seems my friend Arus Al-Din has been missing for almost a year now. A tale is told of this same time last year, That Magic caused the man to disappear. A brother now is ruling in Raseir, And no one knows the fate of the Emir.
  7. Shema (QFG2VGA):"Over the past year, despite the excitement of seeing new lands and cultures, I have felt the pangs of homesickness quite often. But I have never felt regret being by Shameen's side."
  8. Thank You, Master. Now I can take Iblis back to his tomb where he will be safe for another Thousand Years and a Year.
